The term 'Greek High Flier' refers to the mythological figure Icarus, who was the son of the master craftsman Daedalus. Icarus and his father were imprisoned in a tower by King Minos of Crete, but Daedalus crafted wings from feathers and wax for them to escape. He warned Icarus not to fly too close to the sun, but Icarus ignored his father's advice and flew too close, causing the wax to melt and his wings to fall apart, leading to his death. The story of Icarus is a cautionary tale about the dangers of hubris and disobedience.
